FARM NOTES.

In discussing bloat in cattle before a
farmers club. one OF the members said
that when turning cattle out on young

they could get it, aud the consequence
was that the cattle would always eat a

been dry, absorbed the moisture aud pre-.
vented serious results.

REFUSE TO PAY RENT

The city clerk is being greatly annoyed by
tenants OF market STANDS refusing to pay the
rental for the second quarter, which is now due.
The renters claim that they have found their
bargains improbable. and will not keep the
stands longer, although the leases stpulate
term of one year. 1t is becoming evident to the
market committee of the Council that the only
safe way to realize from the market stands will
be to compel all renters to pay for one year in
advance, and action looking to that end will
probably be taken by the Council at an early
meeting.
